to upgrade that box. You won’t be getting any critical security updates.
thanks i will try it - am using 7.10 as it was the last stable release
for LinuxMCE.

the command returns libstdc++5-3.3-dev

http://linuxmce.com/index.php/download implies that 8.10 is the
latest… you are two versions behind,
Also you’ll need sudo apt-get install libstdc++6 libstdc++6-dev
(shouldn’t have to specify versions beyond the 6)

hi i have tried creating a simlink like this?

ln -s /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux-gnu/3.3.6/libstdc++.so libstdc++6.so

but no luck. even with libstdc++5.so

how else can i tell rubygems that I have libstdc++ installed!?

I’d try to start out with a freshly installed system.

aptitude install build-essential

provides you with a compiler and amongst other things libstdc++ in
the correct version for your system (e.g. libstdc++6-4.3-dev).

hey thanks - build-essential isnt available for 7.10

I want to avoid a fresh system as much as possible - and am using this
opportunity to understand more about how this all fits together.

does anyone know how libstdc++ fits into all of this and how i can force
ruby gems to appreciate that i do in fact have it installed.

thanks,

Personally I would not bother struggling to make this all fit
together on a system that has been EOL’d 2 years ago even if
that’s a noble goal. jm2c
I can understand your reason though.
